My beloved pet rats (aged 26 months) are sick. the smaller one more so than the bigger one (milo)... Was off food for a few days but thought that was just like the egg in the foo yung they got on thursday. Now an inspection proves Bob at least has a bad infection and like Milo might have mites... Milo woolfed down the 2 teaspoons of porridge I gave them this am (not much but didn't want to overdo it with the porridge and the ratties) and like looked interested in the carrot. Have put a tiny amount of vit c in their water to see if that helps... It'll be vets if they don't improve by Tuesday (can't go tomorrow as am up the hospital).... Any ideas...or is it just vets? Milo has some tumours on his face but they don't bother him that much. They've been off the pellets for months cos they just can't eat them anymore so have put them on the muesli. Should I maybe soak the muesli in warm water with a little sugar or honey before I give it to them and give it to them soft and wet? Any ideas....just want them to eat and drink again  Jane Hi Jane, I've got ratties too! 5 boys- aged 23 months. Sorry to hear your fur babies are poorly! Are their eyes and ears nice and clear and free of porphyrin? Also how do their chests sound? If they are reluctant to eat then baby food usually works a treat  and a bit of honey mixed in water is brilliant for keeping energy levels up. Personally, unless they really go downhill tonight or tomorrow then I would just keep a very close eye on them and make sure they are eating well, drinking well, going to the toilet etc. and if they havent improved by Tuesday then pop them to the vet for a check up. If you think they might have mites then I would treat them for it anyway, as even if they don't an ivermectin treatment won't do them any harm Hope they get better, I hate it when my boys get poorly so I know how you feel |

Yep mines saying something along the lines of 'departing from outward sorting office' location:Guanzhou (sp?) Its said that for nearly two days now so hopefully it means it's strapped to the pidgeons back and flying its way to me  Yours is probably the same maybe? You placed your order more or less the same time as me so they might have been despatched together. |

Can't wait till I get paid on Tuesday so I can buy a couple of tanks!! Not that I'll use them yet, going to wait till my LT arrives One question though, if I'm using standard boge cartos in the 35mm tank, they don't have the flange like the pre-punched ones do so do they stay stable in the tank? Or would the pre-punched be more stable? Ideally I'd prefer to use the standard boges as ive got plenty of them and don't see the point in spending extra on pre-punched ones |

Hmmm I get loads of vapour from mine  admittedly I don't get fantastic throat hit but that doesn't bother me too much as I get really good flavour from them. I'd open another one and see if it's the same, if that one works then I reckon the first one might be a duff |

Hmm now can normal SR boges go in the Olympian tanks and the puff daddy tanks if I buy the carto punch and put holes in them? I've just stocked up on loads of boges in the GB so would be brill if I can use them in either of those tanks! |

It sounds kind of similar to what the bank does sometimes if they notice what they consider to be 'odd' transactions on your account.
I had my bank ring me not long ago to confirm that I had used my card at a newsagent, all because it was in a different area to where I lived! They put a block on my account until I confirmed about 3 different transactions.

Murano glass can be very expensive so I think that for 5 it's an ok price. I recently bought a murano pandora bracelet charm and it was 30 odd pounds for one charm I think it's because they are all hand blown |

Great news I took my riva kit with me to the GP last week and he actually laughed at me haha he thought it was hilarious that I was sat there vaping blackcurrant juice whilst chatting to him. He thought it was good that I'd stopped the nasties though |

Mine seem to be exactly the same to be honest, not screw wise but I get a much tighter draw on one battery than I do on the other. Very strange, I wonder why it is I'm using a stardust on them too by the way |
